The Cognitive Grid Part I: Why the Grid Is Now an Intelligence Problem

The Cognitive Grid Part I: Why the Grid Is Now an Intelligence Problem

AI is turning electricity from a passive utility into active intelligence. As algorithms shape forecasting and dispatch, power becomes adaptive and moral. Cognitive Infrastructure Theory (CIT) argues that the grid’s greatest challenge isn’t capacity—but governance.
